Well, it's very easy to check your answer. Does it satisfy the equation?
-6(2) + 12 ?=? -13(2)+10
-12 + 12 ?=? -26+10
0 ?=? -16

Just a tip: your answer is not even one of the choices!
try this. Collect x stuff on one side, numbers on the other:
-6x+12 = -13x+10
-6x+13x = 10-12
7x = -2
x = -2/7
-6(2) + 12 ?=? -13(2)+10
-12 + 12 ?=? -26+10
0 ?=? -16
